There is a place between sea and sky — a sacred realm, where the sun rises and falls and the light is new.

From two of the world’s great First Nations comes a brand-new work: . Some call it a feeling, some call it the mother spirit. It’s the place where sea meets sky, the horizon we all look to, the compass that guides us home.

In our first mainstage cross-cultural collaboration, leading M?ori choreographer and Arts Laureate Moss Te Ururangi Patterson joins beloved Bangarra alumna Deborah Brown. Together they guide our award-winning ensemble in stories that honour their mother countries and the spirit that calls them home.

Brown is a proud descendent of the Wakaid Clan and Meriam people in the Torres Strait, and has heritage from far across the seas in Scotland. She carries strength and resilience from her ancestors. Patterson, born near Lake Taupo, is a proud mokopuna (grandson) of the Ngati T?wharetoa tribe, and describes his sense of home as something alive, a fire inside, that he carries like a beating heart.
